  • If your piece is selected for publication, we will ask that you sign a release form.
  • Articles must be non-promotional.

  • Submit the article in Microsoft Word document format (.doc or .docx) only.

History, arts and culture intersect at the corner of SECOND & COMMERCE.

That’s why it’s the title of our quarterly magazine published by the Customs House Museum & Cultural Center. In this publication, we foster creativity and champion our area’s unique cultural diversity. SECOND & COMMERCE expands the Museum’s mission through supporting the arts community, exploring local history and telling stories about the past, present and future of Clarksville.
